10. Upon John Protus.
I well remember Protus, you did threat,That shortly, nothing should your wedding let:
Your Latine phrase, in my brest creates strife;
It signifies to Marry; Lead a wife.
VVhen Ale hath Crippled you, but in small stead
You'l stand, your VVife, or any one to lead:
Nay, shun such thoughts; and get a sober Spouse;
VVho in the dark may lead you; find your House.
